WONDERFUL CURE OF PSORIASIS,
AS a sufftse for fm om the worst form of Psori.
ais, finally crat Cuticura Soap and Cuticurs
Ointment, I wish to tell you my experienc that others
may beefit by It. I was so grievously fflicted that the
matter that exuded from my pores after the scales had peeled
off, would cause my underclothing to actually gum to my
body. After remaining in one positiop, sitting or lying
down, for an hour or two, the flesh on my elbows and knees
would split, so thick and hard would the crusty scales become.
The humiliation I experienced, to say nothing of physical
agony, was something frightfu The detach scales would
fairly rain from my cot sleeves. I have read none of your
testimonials that appear to represent a case so bad as mine.
But as to the cure. I commenced bathing in hot Cuti.
curs Soap suds night and morning, applied the Cuticura
Ointment, and then wrapped myself in a sheet. In two
weeks my skin was almcht blood red in color but smooth
and without scales. Patches of natural coloreJd skin began
jto appear, and in less than a month I was cured. I am now
passed forty years of age and have skin as soft and smooth
as ab's, Hoping that others may benefit by my exper.

closing my name, I am yours gratefully,

A Lesson 11 Art.
"Advice-you'd like my advice, you
say. Advice is the opinion of a friend
which one asks when one has made up
one's mind what course to pursue."
Mr. Fenton's smile broadened into
a laugh as the pretty girl who stood
before him flushed slightly, turning
her head away with a little impatient
movement.
"I thought that you were my friend,"
said Olive West, reproachfully, with
her face still averted.
"And you were right there, my
dear," said Mr. Fenton. "But you
know perfectly well that you have
made up your mind what course to
pursue."
"How could I make up my mind
without hearing what you have to say
to me on the subject of my going to
London?" said she. "My future is se
rious enough to me, Mr. Fenton, and
I fancied that you might also-"
"And so I should, my little friend, if
I didn't know you as well as I do.
Come, now, tell me all that troubles
you. Is it art or Dick this time?"
The girl colored very prettily; then
her brows contracted.
"I like Dick." she said, "but-"
"Ah!"
"Yes, I like him very much, but-"
"Quite do. You mean that you shrink
from the commonplace aspects of a 1
future to be spent in this neighbor
hood. You long for the larger life-the
wider horizon in the higher realms of I
art? Isn't that what your 'but' f
means?"
"Exactly," she cried. "I feel inclined E
to ask what is the good of being born
into the world if one cannot achieve
something higher than is within one's t
reach here?"
"I have now and again asked myself
the same question," said Mr. Fenton.
"If we could suggest any adequate an
swer to that question, we should have
solved one of the greatest problems of
the universe. Have you never heard c
of the waste of nature?"
"To live in Hazelbury is not to live
in the world, it seems to me," said the t
girl "I feel that I was made to do
something in the world-the world- c
that is not Hazelbury. Hazelbury is
hopeless."
"And yet Hazelbury has a reading h
society, hasn't it? If you don't get
through a volume of Carlyle in a
month you are fined a dime; if you
are lured into reading a novel you have '
to pay a quarter." c
"The reading society is a piece of
foolishness." n
"Then there is the Church Choral d
union."
Olive laughed.
"A rookery with a sore throat," she
said. "Oh, I'm sick of Hazelbury. I
want something larger-fuller-I want
life. I want to live."
"And so you won't marry Dick Over
ton?" suggested Mr. Fenton. A
"I'm afraid not," said Olive, shak
Ing her head. "Marrying Dick would sl
mean dooming myself to a future in
Hazelbury." ri
"I can't deny that. His father's bank
is here, and he is in the business. He'll
be a partner in three or four years. Of
course, if you don't marry Dick some
one else will." ef
There was a considerable pause be
fore she said, with a little frown: r
"I hope they will be happy." P
"That's very kind of you, but I'd
rather hear you express a wish to w
scratch her face. I suppose the girl or
will be Lottle Shepherd."
Olive's lips curled after her eyes had
given a quick flash. a
"I hope they will be happy," she said R
again, but in quite a different tone
from that which marked her previous lo
expression of the same hope. fe
"Ah, that sounds healthier; there's a
promise of scratches in every word. be
Still, it might be Mary Marchmont." th
"I hope not. If I cannot marry Dick K
myself-"
"But you can."
She shook her head in a way that
suggested a certain chastened pride.
She knew that Dick wished for noth- be
ing better than to marry her.
"I see it is hopeless looking to you no
for advice," she said sadly. "Even you Qh
do not understand me, though I fan- pe
cled you did. I will not trouble you
any longer, Mr. Fenton."
"Sit down again, and don't be a '
goose," said he. "I knew that you had cre
made up your mind what to do, and we
yet you said you came to me for ad- the
vice. Now it so happens that I quite bri
agree with you in this particular mat- the
ter. It would be ridiculous for a girl its
with such aspirations as you possess go,
to marry the son of a banker at a InI
place such as this is; you would both gr(
be miserable for the rest of your lives." fro
"That is what I feel. I do feel it enq
very deeply." the
"'Of course you do. What is the name bet
of the young woman who was staying lus
with you in the summer-the artist of
young woman?" rec
"Angela Power." prc
"Of course, that's her name. You cm
learned a good deal from her, did you the
not?" ma
"A good deal? Everything! I wa
learned everything from her. She C
taught me what life is-what art is." dif
"Quite so. What art is, and what be
Dick is not. And now you have made wai
up your mind to go and live that ideal the
life in London; and as you have done spu
me the honor to ask my advice in the the
matter, it is most gratifying to me to had
be able to tell you that I believe you wit
to be quite right." mu
"You advise me to go to London?" mui
"Undoubtedly I do. Why should you ant
remain in a place where it is impossl- lool
ble that any work of art could bceilve of 1
the appreciation of which it is deseryv- hea
ing?" so
"I'm so glad you think so. Oh, I ma!
feel that I have got it in me to suc- und
ceed as an artist. I cannot expect to Eni
have a studio of my own all at once, of 1
of course, but I mean to share one wre
with Angela and a couple of other Fra
girls,"
That will be a capital plan at lrt.
Later on, no doubt, you will think of T
building something palatiaL But let Art
me advise you not to do so in a hurry, ro
I hear that one can pick up a good one
many palatial studios nowadays for plet
about a tenth part of the money spent eter
in building them." to
"I shall keep my eyes open, nrrpr fect
ear" said
"And open the eyes of other people, has
'm sure-eople in this nelshborhood .a
who have got as much idea of art a4! -g
--and life as they have of the m
suitable cuisine for the inhabitants
the planet Mars."
ri She gave a laugh. He knew from tl
laugh that he had rightly guessed wl
w, was in her heart. Life was not I
ey so long as it did not make people oz
their eyes.
"I know I shall have to work har
she said; "but what signifies workl
hard when it leads to appreciation?'
"What, indeed? Why, it becomes
a dream of the night. And when
you mean to leave us?"
"I feel that the sooner I get it
harness the better it will be for all
us. Time is flying. I have wasted t
many years of my life already. I sh
id be an old woman before I have beg
to live."
"I think you are on the shady side
to 20 already."
"I am 2."
"Is it possible? Ah, yes, you'll ha
it to make haste if you want to do an
thing before you are past work.
The girl smiled the confident sm
of 23 in the presence of 50.
"I can go home now with a lig
heart," she said. "Of course, po
a mother was opposed to my scheme."
"Oh, of course. Mothers sometim
have queer ideas. I shouldn't wond
if she questioned the possibility
d your doing better for yourself thi
y marrying Dick."
o "That is exactly what she said
cried the girl. "'Marriage is the be
d career for a girl,' poor mother sal
when I told her all that I hoped to do
"Ah! that is so like a mother-ma
riage a career! Well, well!"
s "And I promised her to be guided i
what you would say, so now I can I
r home with a light heart."
Mr. Fenton gave her his han'd.
She elapsed it in both her own qut
prettily while she thanked him agal
and again. But when she got to tl
c door she turned as if she had some
t thing more to say. For some reason
other the words did not come at one
She kept her eyes fixed on the hand

seemed greatly interested in the meet
anism. He waited patiently for her i
speak.
"I-I-like Dick very much, M
Fenton," she said at last. "I only fe'
that-that-well, I'll be sorry to leav
Dick."
"That's because you have a kin
heart, my dear." said he. "But if
were you I wouldn't think too muc
about Dick's disappointment. I kno,
what these young chaps are; they fat
cy, for the time being, that it woul
be impossible for them to think of an
other girl than the one on whom the
believe they have set their hearts, but
bless your soul, my child, they ar
over head and ears with another gir
before the one that has treated ther
(as you suppose) unkindly has finishe
her afternoon tea. Don't worry your
self about Master Dick; he'll find am
pie consolation for your absence befor
you are gone 24 hours, the young ras
cal!"
There was another pause and som,
more twitching of the handle of thi
door before she said:

Crecy.
The old church and an old market
cross in the square near it are both
worth inspection. The red bricks of
the church walls were as mellow and
bright with lichen as the houses of
the town; and the chestnut trees by
its porch yield a shade which the Crecy
gossips no doubt relish in the dogdays.
Inside, it has not very much to en
gross; one expects such great things
from French churches that its defici
encies seem more considerable than
they are. But on this bright Septem
ber morning the interior was made
lustrous by the presence of a number
of nuns in spotless white, solemnly
receiving the sacrament. A somewhat
profane common person in a clean blue
smock took snuff as he contemplated
the scene, and remarked to me, "That
makes a pretty picture, ma fol!" It
was even more than that.
Of the battlefield one sees without
difficulty everything that remains to
be seen. The old mill by which Ed

the Black Prince won the day and his
spurs has been removed only within
the last 12 years. It is a pity that it
had to go; but onemay sympathize also
with the French proprietor of it; he
must have got rather weary of it, he
must have got weary at seeing exult
ant Britons standing at its base and
looking at the wheat fields and acres
of beetroot below with pride in their
hearts. But the site, of course, is not
so readily removable; and any one
may from this capital vantage ground
understand with what precision the
English king could follow the details
of the combat which ended in the
wreck of the hopes of his brother of
France.-Chambers' Journal.

A Crab Goliath.
In Central America there lives a rob
ber crab, of almost incredible size,
and somewhat resembling a large spi
der. The distance be'*Been its ex
tended claws is sometimes as great as
twelve feet. It spends the greater
part of its life on land, and climbs the
cocoanut trees, on the fruit of which
it lives almost entirely. It digs in the
ground deep tunnels and lines them
with cocoanut fibre.
When engaged the robber crab can
break a man's limb with its powerful
claws. Animals approaching it too
closely often receive an ugly plinch,
which they do not soon forget, and it
is on record that one of these crabs
has captured and tried to drag off a
goat.
To open a cocoanut the robber crab
removes the bark from the end con
taining the three eyes, one only of
which is easily penetrated, and having
found this, it revolves the nut against
the point of one of Its spindle legs un
til the opening is large enough for it
to insert its great claw. With this it
breaks the shell, grinds the contents
into small pieces an4 carries them to
its mouth.
A Tale-Bearing Marble.
Lord Kelvin once surprised his class
by the quick and amusing manner in
which he solved a problem on "sound."
In the midst of an experiment Lord
Kelvin had ceased lecturing, and was
silently watching, along with most of
the students, the progress of an exper
iment. There was a dead silence,
which was suddenly and rudely bro
ken by the sound of a marble, which
an inattentive pupil had purposely
dropped, and which continued to roll
and drop, drop, drop down all the tiers
of benches till it reached the ground
floor. Meanwhile Lord Kelvin had
quickly turned around and observed
where the marble emerged on the
floor. He counted back the number
of times he had heard it drop, and
then announced:
"Mr. X- of the seventh tier, you
may report to me after the lecture."
The eminent scientist had correctly
spotted tne culprit. - Mainly About

Mushroom Culture by Ants.
In the American Naturalist Profes
sor Wheeler describes a new genus of
insect living commensally with certain
ants. The general reader will, how
ever, be specially interested in
the so-called "mushroom gardens"
formed by the ants in question. It
appears that they cut and transport
Into their subterranean cellars large
pieces of leaves, which are there di
vided Into smaller fragments, and ul
timately reduced to a fine pulp. "This
pulp is heaped up, and soon becomes
invaded by the mycelium of a fungus.
The mycelium is kept aseptically
clean-i. e., free from all species of
fungi and even from bacteria-and in
duced to grow in an abnormal way
by bringing forth minute swellings
which constitute the only food of the
ant colony. Moiler likens these swell
ings to the 'kohlrabl' of the German
kiLtcben gardens."
Denmark is a small country, but it
has the great distinction among en
lightened nations of exporting the best
butter in the world. A report of Frank
H. Hitchcock. chief of the division of
foreign markets in the agricultural
department at Washington, says that,
while butter is the most valuable ex
port of the Danes, "they import a good
deal of butter of the cheaper sort from
the United Statee," -

Proposed Alliance with England.
If the United States and England should
form an alliance, the combined strength
would be so great that there would be little
chance for enemies to overcome us. In a
like manner, when men and women keep
up their bodily strength with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, there is little chan e of
attacks from disease. The old time remedy
enriches the blood, steadies the nerves, and
increases the appetite. Try it for dyspepeia

The Paris National library,which has
today over 2,000,000 volumes, was
opened in 1645 with 1,300 volumes. It
includes today, among other things,
about 280,000 volumes relating to
French history and 611,000 volumes
relating to the history of other coun

° "I do not feel very well, I am so
u tired all the time. I do not know what
, is the matter with me."

do feel far from well most of the time.
Mrs. Ella Rice, of Chelsea, Wis.,
whose portrait we publish, writes that
she suffered for two years with bear
i. ing-down pains, headache, backache,
and had all kindsof miserable feelings,
all of which was caused by falling and
inflammation of the womb, and after
doctoring with physicians and numer
ous medicines she was entirely cured by
ti

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound.
If you are troubled with pains,
fainting spells, depression of spirits,
reluctance to go anywhere, headache,
backache, and always tired, please re
member that there is an absolute
remedy which will relieve you of your
suffering as it did Mrs. Rice. Proof
is monumental that Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound is the
greatest medicine for suffering women.
No other medicine has made the cures
that it has, and no other woman has
helped so many women by dieect advice
as has Mrs. Pinkham; her experience
is greater than that of any living per
son. If you are sick, write and get
her advice; her address is Lynn. Mass
